The invention consists in a composition made from water, raw linseed oil, troy gum,

alum, clay and 'zinc oxid or other bodyforming substances, potassium carbonate or other substance which will incorporatethe oil, sodium chloridlor other preservative, and ..l;;crude lycerin'ljor' other preventiveof tooffia'pifd' rying, or some of these substancesla's con itions may require, prepared and mixecl ila ereinafter explained and claim'ej This substance, troy is a commercial article,0f starchy nature, and so far as I .can ascertain is a hydrolized starch product.

In the following description the part or parts relate. to 'wei ht.

- One part of troy gum is disso ved in eight parts of lukewarm water,thoroughly mixed so as to avoid the formation of lumps, boiled, and the solution then allowed to cool. This preparation is herein referred to as the terms solution.

To prepare a weather-proof paint, there five parts of'the solution one hundred and thoroug two of water are added, and for a preservative three parts of common salt or its equivalent.

seventy-five parts of clay, and twenty-five parts of zinc 'oxid or other equivalent owdere'd or otherwise finely-divided bodyormin materials, and these ingredients are l mixed in an ordinary prsuitable mixer. I after thorough mixing the composition of the consistence of Lelly, then parts of alum dissolved in -t ree parts If the composition should drytoo rapidly any suitable retarder may be added, and it is found that crude glycerin 1n the proportion-of three per cent. of the mass, 18 useful. For a water-proof paint, there is added to the foregoing mixture twent -fiv'e parts of raw linseed oil and thorou h y mixed. The

addition of three ,parts 0 potassium car-,

this invention is to provide reaction products water, troy -my hand this 25th day mf July, A.

bonate or equivalent alkaline matter dis- '7 solved in-six parts of water, will facilitate 1 18 incorporation of the oil in the composiion. r

The product is an excellent cold water paste-paint, suitable for both indoor and outdoor work, of durable quality, easily worked, and comparatively inexpensive.
